    Definition

    1. Shutter-a mechanical device on a camera that opens and closes to control the time of a photographic exposure
    2. Shutter Speeds -
    1. Shutter Priority-Shutter priority refers to a setting on some cameras that allows the user to choose a specific shutter speed while the camera adjusts the aperture to ensure correct exposure.
    2. Exposure & how to set your camera for a good exposure-the total amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium. Set your camera on “M” for manual exposure for a good exposure
    3. Bulb- A separate setting in both shutter priority and manual mode that allows the photographer to set exposures longer than 30 seconds.
    4. Cable Release-the mechanisms attached to cameras that allow photographers to snap photos from a distance.
    5. Tripod-used for both still and motion photography to prevent camera movement.
    6. Light Meter-a device used to measure the amount of light
    7. Bracketing-a simple technique professional photographers use to ensure they properly expose their pictures, especially in challenging lighting situations.
    8. Hot Shoe-The matching adapter on the bottom of the flash unit slides in from the back of the camera
